 I need the resulting string that appears on the target page to be:
 
 _the_target_page?type=blah&keyword=foo
 
 I could make the name of the input text field be keyword.  What would the
 action look like?  Would it be
 
 "_the_target_page?type=blah" ?
 
 Would I rather just need to define a hidden field and give it the name
 "type" and the value "blah" ?
 
 If this is the case, then I am left with the single problem of the not
 having an input button of type submit, but having an image instead.
